This place is great. Centrally located, beautiful ambiance, huge portions, enough for 2 meals. A little expensive but justified by the portions. Huge menu. Great before or after a movie at Regal Majestic or AFI or before a Fillmore show. Plenty of parking in surrounding garages, and right on the subway and multiple bus lines. Plenty of shopping in Ellsworth Place--make a day of it! read more

Whhaattttt I live for their Green Curry with Chicken! Right amount of spice and flavor coupled with a generous helping! Consistent every time I order - great for take out lunch or dinner ~ read more

Had a horrible experience dining. First, the food was way too salty and the service was horrible. Had to wait at least 10 minutes after the food arrived to talk to waiter about the food. And I am talking about a Wednesday nights' dinner time. There were hardly any tables but it was tough to get response from wait staffs. The ambience is deceiving. I would recommend kao Thai next block rather than dining here again. read more

The highlight on my meal was nothing edible, but rather our darling waitress. Even though we had to wait close to 10 minutes before she came over to our table, she was so sweet that she washed away any feelings of neglect we may have felt. For a Wednesday night, I was surprised at how crowded the restaurant was. Just about every table was occupied, so it's not shocking that the waitresses were incredibly busy. We went for a straight forward order: spring rolls, fried calamari, chicken pad thai. Everything was pretty standard, The pad thai was a little on the bland side, but the portion was size was fair. I really wish I had more to share here, but that's all folks. read more

Eek! Methinks not. All I can say is that- there was a MOUSE running around underneath the tables. I was very disgusted and disappointed by the response of the staff after I brought it to their attention. They came over, looked at it, and kept on going about their business. Maybe MOUSE sightings are pretty regular for them?? I would have expected the food to be refunded and an apology. Because neither happened, I'm really at a loss for words. I don't see myself returning. read more

I am a pad thai aficionado. Honestly, I should probably try another dish when I go to Thai restaurants, but nooo... I stick to what I know and love, to a fault. So a few days ago, when I had a craving for chicken pad thai, I took to Yelp to find a nearby spot for dinner. Located in the heart of downtown Silver Spring, this restaurant fit the bill, so my boyfriend and I dropped by. As an appetizer, we ordered the lettuce wraps. There were three different sauces, which were tasty, as well as chicken and garnishes. It was unlike other lettuce wrap dishes I've had in the past, but it was still good. On to the main meal. I ordered the chicken pad thai, and my boyfriend ordered the shrimp pad thai. Both were ehh... I expected better, honestly. The ok food coupled with the ok service makes this establishment a sold three star experience. read more

So I have been back a couple times since my last review - again with some work friends. I will say, I do enjoy their lunch specials. A much better deal than coming here for a regular dinner. The lunch specials include a generous entrée, your choice of appetizer and a soda. For Thai Iced Tea, you will be charged extra (an entire drink price, instead of the difference between a soda and Thai Tea which what I would expect). The first time I came here with my work friend, it was delicious. Everything was well prepared and the perfect amount of flavor. I returned recently for lunch, ordered the exact same thing I ordered the time before and everything tasted so different. Both times I ordered: Fried Tofu Pad Thai (No Egg, No Fish Sauce) Extra Bean Sprouts. Green Papaya Salad (No Fish Sauce) Thai Iced Tea The first time the Pad Thai was tastier. And the papaya salad wasn't so spicy that I couldn't feel my throat, and let me tell you - I can handle spicy very well. I think the food is hit or miss, and not consistent at all. I'd definitely come back for their lunch specials, but that's it. read more

The food and the service here during lunch hour was pretty good. The lunch specials come with a drink, appetizer, and entree for a reasonable price. We were seated right away and received our food quickly. I do think it has a lot to do with having a lunch-only menu and already having some of the items pre-made. With that said, I also think this may be why the food was just average. I ordered pad thai and it was a bit bland and lacked any real spice or flavor. The curry puffs were perfectly fried, but were also a little bland. The sauce was superb, though. I intend to try this place again in the future to give another try. read more

Ordered the Chicken Thai Noodle Soup. Struggled to find bean sprouts in it. When I asked for extra, was told that it would be $3 more. I found that ridiculous. Soup had very little cabbage, as well, and was totally bland. Only reason I gave 2 stars was because the server was very nice. Won't be returning. read more

I really want to give this place four stars. They have a good location, their food looks good, and they have ample portions. But their food just lacks flavor. :*-( Nestled in the heart of downtown Silver Spring, Thai at Silver Spring has a premier location. Park in the municipal parking garage and walk into the downtown restaurant row area. The stairs (and elevator) directly in front of you lead to the door of Thai at Silver Spring. The layout of the restaurant is open with a curved front, giving the diner the option of a window booth or a more intimate table in the center or back of the dining room. The waitstaff may have to be waved down a few times once your food is delivered, but upon seating service is quick. And when the food comes...a bit of sadness. THE FOOD WAS NOT BAD! Lets get that out of the way. There was not a single bad taste amongst the many dishes ordered. Unfortunately, there was almost no taste among anything on the table. The Tom Kha (creamy coconut milk chicken) soup came in a huge bowl and looked wonderful. Bland chicken with an absence of the rich traditional flavors. The calamari came out in deep fried onion ring form. No excess grease, evenly battered and fried. Very promising looking. Chewy. The batter had crunch, but nothing else. I was basically using the calamari as a conveyance for the sweet chilly sauce. Actually, the sweet chilly sauce was probably the best thing portion of the meal. I ordered the Jungle Lover with chicken and fried tofu. Supposedly spicy. Nope. In my family I'm the one that orders meal with the least "heat", here I couldn't find it. The tofu was softer than the chicken: Yay! But WOW, I had the hardest time chewing through each and every tough piece. They were like little sponges. Bite down, they compress, release, they spring back to their original form. If I wasn't so stubborn (and hungry) they might have won that battle. All in all, this restaurant could be really really good. But they have to find the flavor. I've had Thai food in Thailand, Europe, in the north, the south, east coast, west coast, and spots in the middle. There are many takes on the cuisine, but the one Must Have element that was missing here: Flavor. read more

Went here for dinner last night with hubby and the kiddos and this being my third trip there I can say it will probably be my last. With the higher prices (have definitely gone up since the last time) it just wasn't as good as I remembered. We started with the fried calamari and an order of mussels and let me tell you, the recession is hitting this place because we got those super white calamari rings that look like onion rings. They no longer have the real calamari with the tentacles which we used to fight over. My daughter kept asking if they were onion rings. And they were really greasy. As for the mussels, they obviously were precooked and had been sitting in the broth for awhile because they were very mushy and tasted very tart. The entrees were better. My daughters shared an order of Drunken Noodles and had no complaints. My husband got the number 51 which was a noodle dish with beef, eggs, veggies and it was pretty tasty but nothing to rave about. I had the Green Curry which I asked them to please make it spicy but when it came to the table I could barely get any heat from the first few bites. It was very mild and so I told the waitress that it wasn't spicy at all and she gave me the condiment tray which had some chili powder on it that I put in it to make it spicy. The paltry amount of rice they give you with your dish is really pathetic. It seems to be like a half a cup; so of course we ended up paying $1.50 for some more. The lady at the table next to us was gettting on the waitress about how ridiculous she thought it was that her dish would come with such a tiny amount of rice and that she had to pay for more. I totally agree with her! Lastly, I ordered the mango and sticky rice and it was decent but not mind boggling and my taste buds didn't do a jig when I was eating it. We left out $70 poorer and feeling a bit robbed. Oh well! read more

If you ask for thai spiciness, they gonna bring the heat! The food itself though was mediocre. Service was efficient and quick.

I frequent this hidden gem in the heart of downtown silver spring quite often. The food and service are consistent. No frills or thrills just good and reliable Thai cuisine. The dishes never disappoint and the prices (both regular priced and lunch specials) are reasonable. On this visit the Mrs and I found an unexpected opportunity on a weekday after noon for a quick bite to eat. Upon entering the restaurant we were seated immediately which seems to be the norm here regardless of how busy it may be. Lunch selections for the special included your choice of one appetizer or soup, an entree and choice of tea or soda. The Lady enjoyed Tom Kha Chicken coconut lemon grass broth with mushroom and for her entree Pork Pad Thai. The Broth she ordered was the show stopper and this is coming from a foodie that doesn't like coconut. Rich and creamy with flavors elegantly complex. The Pork Pad Thai was tasty and they serve just the right portion size. I ordered Spring Roll appetizer and Kapow Chicken Fried Rice. The Spring Rolls are always a banging choice here, the only decision one may ponder is whether or not to order another because they are so tasty. Crispy, warm, and great vegetable filling on the inside. They are served with a dipping sauce orange in color and has sweet, tangy and spicy elements blended harmoniously in it. My Kapow Fried rice was decent. Average really and nothing noteworthy other than good flavor with the chicken, brown rice and vegetables. The entire bill came up to $26, but when comparing to other lesser lunch options this to me categorizes as money well spent..... read more

We ordered a green papaya salad to start. Flavor was good, but the tomatoes could have marinated more, portion size was reasonable. It came out within 4 minutes of placing the order. We tried two main courses, a tofu pad ga pow, and a beef pad thai. The tofu lacked texture but the sauce was pretty flavorful. The pad thai had been ordered "extra spicy" and had a decent amount of flavor, but it didn't taste like a classic pad thai, im not sure what was off but the individual components didnt really come together as a cohesive dish, the portion size was pretty large though. The entrees arrived a few minutes after we finished the appetizer, it arrived 17 minutes after we had originally placed the order. For dessert we had the sticky rice with thai custard and the thai flan. The sticky rice was actually off putting because because it had a weird savory component to it. The thai flan was not a flan but tasted alright. One thing that did bother me was that they brought an empty box to the table when unasked for the leftovers to be boxed. I know that it's common in a lot of places for the customer to box the food, but it rubs me the wrong way. read more

Yummy! The best Thai food in the DMV! I have been here several times and every time the service and food has been great! The curries are the best!! It's a very nice spot to grab food with a friend or a dinner date. The location is cool because after eating it's either shopping at H&M, movie time at the theaters or people watching and enjoying street performers. Very nice location. read more

I have to say that I am very disappointed because of my latest visit here tonight! Immediately after paying $40 for my meal and to-go order, and walking out of the establishment, one of the waitresses/hosts ran outside to me as I was about to walk down the big staircase in the town center and began frantically asking me if everything was okay because I opted to not leave a tip. Personally felt the service was okay since it was a slightly busy night with bigger parties currently seated and other patrons who walked in after me were waiting a while at the check-in desk to be acknowledged. I have definitely experienced better; but, the only reason I didn't tip was due to not having my main wallet; so, I didn't have enough cash and was using a pre-paid gift card. Despite her hawking me as I dug through my bag, I managed to find two dollars and gave it to her, and she had the nerve to ask me if I can put more on the card! Safe to say in my almost 8 years of coming to this restaurant I have never felt so disrespected and disappointed in a restaurant's customer service in my life; and will definitely think really hard about ever coming here again! I work in customer service myself and have worked in restaurants and that experience tonight was absolutely unacceptable! Chasing a customer outside over a tip, especially considering I have been a longtime patron is beyond ridiculous no matter how though times are. I really didn't want to think it was a race thing but my goodness... I'm only giving it 3 stars because the Pad See Ew & Spicy Breaded Shrimp has always been good. read more

We stopped in right as happy hour was starting. I love restaurants that have happy hour on that weekend! They have mojitos, martinis & margaritas for $5 & $2 off cocktails. They also had $5 & $6 apps. Everything was ok. The fried fish was fried too hard. The curry puffs were a little bland but went well with the sauce that comes with it. The Bangkok wings were also just ok. Overall the drinks were the best things we had on the menu. The mango & sticky rice was also great. read more

I called in to order pad Thai yesterday. I Came and picked up my to go order and ate some when I got home.

DO NOT SPEND YOUR MONEY HERE!!! read more

I've been here twice and have been beyond impressed both times. In fact, I think it also beats out the other two impressive 5-Star Thai places in Downtown Silver Spring I have been to (Ruang Khao Thai and Charm Thai). They have happy hour deals before and after dinner time with both discounted drinks and appetizers. They have a large drink selection and had a delicious mango mojito the first time. Both times I had both the salmon rolls which is like a delicious sushi tempura as well as the spring rolls which are also yummy. For my entrees I got the drunken noodles both times, once with beef and then with veggies and tofu. The service has been friendly, prompt, and helpful both times I came. I certainly look forward to trying more of their wonderful entrees, appetizers, and drinks in the future. read more

Came here for lunch for a coworkers birthday - it was midday on a weekday so the restaurant had plenty of seating and our big group got seated right away. All of us opted for the lunch special- its about $13 for a soup or appetizer, soda or tea, and an entree, which is a pretty awesome deal I'd say. I went with jasmine tea, seaweed soup, and the Pad Ka-Pow! Unfortunately, the waiter who was taking the order didn't seem to explain clearly what was in the entree I was interested in - according to the name and his description of the dish, I believed there would be noodles in the dish. As you might be able to tell, there weren't, and it came with rice. I didn't ask to switch it out for a noodle dish as we were short on time, but the dish itself was still very good. The seaweed soup was good too - very mild flavors, clear broth, (and it did not taste like miso soup) it was unique. The staff was kind enough to split the bill nine ways for our group so we could all pay individually. I'd revisit because the food was very good, and the lunch special is a great deal - you get plenty of food for the price. read more

I have a lot of restrictions to my diet when I'm doing a spiritual fast (the daniel fast). I went here with my sister and the easily and willingly modified my meals as needed. It's also good that they have a good amount of vegetarian/vegan options. I have been here before while on my regular diet (pescatarian) and I was also very satisfied!

I've been here twice in the past 3 months and I enjoyed my experience both times. I ate at around the same time both occasions (5:30-6:00ish) and it wasn't crowded at all. The first time, I got my usual of pineapple fried rice. It is heavenly. It is also a huge portion! What came out to my table was half of a hollowed-out pineapple overflowing with rice. They only drawback was that there were not enough pineapples. The second time around, I got the sweet and sour chicken. My friends got the pad thai (seafood, I believe) and the crab meat rice (not sure exactly what it's called on the menu). All three of us practically inhaled our food. The space inside is very large and there's ample seating. It's also clean to the naked eye, and the tables weren't sticky or anything. We stayed and chatted for a good bit after we finished our meal and there was no rush or pressure to leave from the staff. This is a great gem in DTSS! read more

This restaurant seems to be doing pretty well because it's been packed every time I've gone. The food is just okay though. My latest visit was for a birthday party and we were a group of 20 and had the back room. We ordered lettuce wraps which were pretty blah. Not much flavor, the meat was pretty dry. I ordered the crispy salmon roll as an appetizer to share and that was my favorite dish. It wasn't amazing, better than everything else though. Lastly for my meal, the salmon red curry. It was okay. Salmon was over cooked, curry lacked flavor. It's Thai food for the masses - not for those we really enjoy Thai food. The location of the restaurant is fantastic so I assume that's why it's always so busy. No complaints about the service. read more

Absolutely delicious! I came here with my husband and we were BLOWN AWAY by the precautions they were taking during COVID. Pretty much all the cutlery is in disposables. They maintain 6ft distancing even when they take their orders andddd to top off their COVID measures they even have absolutely delicious Thai food. We got the mushroom tom yum, vegeterian pad Thai, an eggplant and mango sticky rice. We were happy with all of it. They are generous with their portion sizes and very generous with their veggies (which I love as a vegetarian) Ohhh and you have to try their boba. They make their boba pearls fresh, on the spot! read more

Id come back! This place wasn't the best but it was very tasty. I'd definitely come back just for the mango and sticky rice! Went during lunch time and got hot tea, appetizer, and entree for $12.50.

PEOPLE OF COLOR AVOID THIS RESTAURANT I never write yelp reviews but I want to be able to help someone not experience what I did. For years I've been coming here and I'm truly in love with their food but I have enough integrity to not support a business that's racist. I was coming in weekly for a simple order that I enjoyed and I always made sure to tip. One night my husband and I came in at 9:30 and they closed at 10 they told us the kitchen was closing and we needed to order immediately which I completely understand so we order and the food arrives. When the food comes it's a smaller portion then normal (I know this because I come their every week, 2 times a week because I work next door) so I assume they have different portions for lunch and dinner. I ask the one of the employees kindly if their was a change with no attitude at all because I had no problem with it. It was just a harmless curious question which I said at the beginning of my question. And she immediately got defensive and informed me she was the manager and that nothing it wrong and I'm wrong... I assumed she didn't understand my question and had a bad day so I told her that's fine thank you for your help. She walks away to speak in her native language very loud and aggressively looking at me so obviously she was talking about me. To make things worse she comes back to prove her point aggressively which was not necessary at all. I was very uncomfortable and left. I didn't come back in until a couple months later which I decided I was going to give them another try. after all I was coming for the food which was my mistake I didn't take into account the disrespectful staff and terrible customer service. I come in today and all the staff begin to stare at me, talk about me, and are hesitant to serve me. I tell the waiter that finally comes up to my table after me waiting 10 minutes and I tell her my order. I ask for a coke and she ignores it and looks into the mirror fixing her hair than grabs into a small napkin to blow her nose. She brings my coke to the table and the straw was already placed into the cup which they've never done! THEIR WAS A SWEATY FINGERPRINT SMUDGE OMT HE STRAW RIGHT AFTER SHE BLEW HER NOSE. My food came right after and their was A CLUMP OF HAIR in the rice AS IF IT WAS PLANTED . I was in disbelief and could not believe what I witnessed. They all started laughing them I panicked and told them I would never come here again because of this and they said "good, goodbye". I was never rude and because I'm black I'm immediately accused of being loud, ghetto, picky when I'm none of these things. am shocked they had the actual hate on their heart to tamper with my meal. A complaint was filled and is currently being investigated. Enter at your own risk read more

I order from this location almost every week. Their crab fried rice is 10/10. But the delivery persons attitude today warrants my bad review. Unpleased with the tip we left, he waited in the doorway after knocking like police to confront my boyfriend. Once we opened the door, he proceeded to try to hold the food away from him and request a bigger tip. As it is covid: 1. I don't want to be less than 6 feet away from a stranger, 2. I don't carry cash because almost everywhere is cashless. Even if I did have cash, I certainly wouldn't give it to you for attempting to bully me. His last regard "then come pick it up at the restaurant yourself." We won't be eating this food for fear of what he may have done to it, but also, I don't think I'll be ordering from her anymore there's about 5 nearby Thai places to try. I called the manager, I hope they intend to do something about the way he acted. I also will be telling management not to let him in this building again after he acted like a madman read more

I came here for dinner last night and was pleased with the entire experience. We ordered yellow curry with chicken and green curry with tofu and vegetables and I must say it was delicious. My friend also ordered a thai ice tea and had no problem slurping it down. Although I was very hungry when I showed up around 9 pm, the portion was still enough for two servings so I took half to go. They packed it nicely in a tightly sealed container that I could add my rice to and heat up the next day. The green curry was pretty spicy but it was perfect for my palate! I recommend going with medium spice if you are sensitive to spicy food. The service was also great! I'm happy to have this thai restaurant in the neighborhood and will come back! read more
